■/  >> 


The  subjects  illus¬ 
trated  are  selected 
from  the  various  branches 
of  artistic  metal  work  for 
which  The  J.  L.  Mott  Iron 
Works  have  long  been 
noted.  Our  record  of 
over  eighty  years  of  con¬ 
tinuous  and  successful 
work  in  this  line  is  a 
guaranty  of  quality  and 
of  responsibility.  The  in¬ 
creasing  importance  that 
has  of  late  years  been 
given  to  the  adornment 
of  both  city  and  country 
homes  makes  vases,  foun¬ 
tains,  entrance  gates,  etc., 
indispensable.  We  will

literature  to  those  interested.  Wdien  writing  it  is 
always  advisable  to  give  us  all  information  possible.

Nearly all  country 
places  should  have 
a  water  garden  or  basin 
for  aquatic  plants  in 
connection  with  a  display 
fountain,  either  small 
figure  or  group.  When 
centrally  located  the 
water  display  will  add 
greatly  to  the  pictur¬ 
esqueness  of  the  garden. 

The  statue  of  Hebe 
on  the  opposite  page  is 
the  work  of  the  sculptor 
Moretti. 

I'he  Greek  WGter 
Carrier,  above,  is  a  con¬ 
ception  of  the  sculptor 
A.  G.  Newman. 

Both  statues  possess 
grace  and  dignity.

IN  the  park  or  other  public  place  the  fountain 
is  always  a  central  point  of  interest.  We 
have  many  designs  of  these  fountains  ;  some 
elaborate  in  themselves,  others  depending  largely 
for  their  effectiveness  upon  the  water  display.

An  interesting  adjunct 
-  to  the  garden  foun¬

ducks,  goslings,  floating 
frogs,  etc.  They  are  in  plate  242-L.  frog 

natural  colors.  The  turtle 
is  finely  modeled  from 
life  and  is  arranged  to 
throw  a  jet  of  water,  if 
desired.

From  our  many  designs 
in  the  various  styles  the 
owner  and  architect  can 
readily  make  ,  a  suitable 
selection. 

Illustrations  of  light  posts 
for  residences,  business  or 
public  buildings  and  parks 
will  be  sent  on  request.

SUPERIORITY  of  design 
and  excellence  of  casting 
have  placed  us  at  the  head  and 
front  in  the  manufacture  of  Or¬ 
namental  Iron  Work,  and  more 
particularly  electric  light  posts 
and  electroliers.  The  equipment 
at  our  Trenton  works  for  their 
production  is  unequalled.  W  e 
have  designed  and  furnished 
the  electroliers  for  many  of 
the  most  prominent  buildings 
throughout  the  country.

PLATE  21  7-1..  VASE 


OWNERS  of  country 
places  all  over  the 
world  are  interested  in 
beautifying  them  and,  of 
late,  architects  and  land¬ 
scape  gardeners  have  given 
marked  attention  to  the 
laying  out  of  the  gar¬ 
dens,  terraces,  lawns  and 
grounds.  Appreciating 
this  fact  we  have  success¬ 
fully  reproduced  many  of 
the  most  celebrated  works 
of  the  highest  artistic  value, 
such  as  decorate  the  beau¬ 
tiful  homes  of  England, 
Italy  and  France. 


PLATE  208-L.  VASE 


These  classical 

reproductions, 
together  with  many 
highly  artistic  and 
original  designs,  are 
part  of  the  exhibit 
at  our  showrooms. 
We  shall  be  glad 


to  send  illustrations 
on  receipt  of  infor¬ 
mation  as  to  the 
size  and  character 
of  the  vases  desired. 


We  are  also  pre-  plate  219-1.  vase 

pared  to  submit  special  designs  and  suggest  new 
models  to  harmonize  with  the  scheiue  of  garden 
or  house  architecture.

ON  the  terrace,  at

greatly  to  the  artistic 
effect. 

Illustrations  showing 
weather  vanes  and  sun 
dials  will  be  sent  on 
application,  or  special 
ones  will  be  made  up 
from  architects’  draw¬

Enterprising  mu¬ 
nicipalities  are  rapidly 
increasing  the  number  of 
drinking  fountains  for  ani¬ 
mals  and  also  for  men. 

We  are  specially  equipped 
for  work  of  this  kind  and 
drinking  fountains  of  our 
design  and  manufacture  are 


almost  exclusively  in  use 
throughout  the  United  States 
and  South  America.

OF  our  large  number  of 
drinking  fountains  we 
have  here  selected  one  large 
ornamental  one  for  a  park 
or  other  prominent  place, 
one  smaller  one  for  man, 
horse  and  dog  ;  a  “  crystal 
stream  ”  sanitary  bubbling 
cup,  and  a  bronze  wall 
panel. 

In  each  class  we  have  a 
large  variety  of  models.

PLATK  722-S.  STABLE  INTERIOR 

OU  R  stable  fittings  in  iron,  brass  and  bronze, 
non-comparable  as  to  quality  and  finish,  have 
for  many  years  occupied  the  first  place  in  all 
high-class  work.  We  make  a  very  comprehensive 
exhibit  at  our  showrooms.  Fifth  Ave.  and  17th  St. 


Absolute  cleanliiiess  is  necessary  wliere 
■  pure  milk  is  desired.  These  fittings  are 
tlioroiiglily  sanitary,  durable  and  of  approved 
design,  and  the  stalls  can  be  flushed  with  a  hose, 
thereby  cleaning  them  thoroughly  and  quickly. 
'I'he  self-watering  devices  shown  are  supplied 
from  an  automatic  tank,  the  water  in  basins  main¬ 
taining  a  uniform 
level.  The  over¬ 
head  conveyors 
carry  feed,  and 
the  manure  is 
removed  in  the 
same  way. 


IN  181^8  our  works  at  Mott  Haven  w^ere 
established.  In  1894  our  Potteries  were 
established  in  Trenton,  where,  in  1907,  our 
entire  manufacturing  plant  was  concentrated. 

Not  only  do  we  manufacture  all  the  goods 
we  sell  hut  we  manufacture  them  in 

ONE  COMPREHENSIVE  PLANT 

which  is  undoubtedly  the  most  complete  and 
thoroughly  equipped  of  its  kind.  No  expense 
has  been  spared  to  get  the  very  best  results  in 
every  department,  our  aim  being  to  produce 
goods  of  the  highest  quality  in  their  various 
grades,  and  to  do  so  at  a  reasonable  cost.

the  following  :
